We all receive schedule information in email, whether it’s meeting a friend, a conference schedule, office hours for school, or a concert you’re attending. Manually adding these events to our calendars can be frustrating.
And once you have kids in school, the weekly newsletters can feel absolutely dreadful. Imagine dozens of events you have to track and add by hand. Some of us opt to close our eyes and not read the newsletter rather than face the daunting task of tedious, manual calendar work.
At Agenda Hero, our mission is to give you time back for what matters. This means enjoying the activities in the newsletter, not spending time adding them to your calendar.
Agenda Hero for Chrome eliminates manual calendar work right from your inbox.
Copy text, screenshot, or upload an image or PDF right from your inbox, and Agenda Hero will create calendar events for you instantly. You can review the results and add them to the calendar of your choice. One or dozens of events on your calendar without any form-filling.
How it works
- Get Agenda Hero for Chrome
- Open your email in a Chrome browser
- Select the text you wish to convert and click Add to Calendar
(or open the extension to access the screenshot tool) - Agenda Hero puts the right info into the right fields: title, date, start time, end time, location, and description, and even brings over links so you have them in your calendar
- Review the results, modify them if you wish, then add to Google, Apple, Outlook, or your Agenda Hero calendars and pages.
A joyful detail: if there is a link in your source content, Agenda Hero will bring it over into the calendar event too. No hunting through emails later. Less time adding to your calendar, more time enjoying what is in it.
FAQ:
Does it only work with school newsletters?
No, you can use the Agenda Hero Chrome Extension for any schedule information in your email or on the web: community events, extracurricular schedules, class syllabi, haircut appointments, club emails, team schedules, real estate showings, PDFs, and more. Really, for anything.
Which calendars are supported?
Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, and any calendar you can invite via email. You can also add events to your Agenda Hero pages and Agenda Hero collaborative calendars.
What about missing end times or partial details?
If your schedule doesn’t include end times, Agenda Hero will default to an hour duration, which you can always change, as every field in your results is editable. You can also add more information in the additional context field, such as “All events are 90 minutes”. For more information on how this works, see More Joy, Less Filling in the Blanks.
Do links carry over?
Yes, things like Zoom links, sign-ups, hyperlinks, and resource URLs in your source content come along to your calendar so that everything you need is in one place.
Can I edit the results before I add?
Absolutely. Every field in your results is editable. You can quickly tweak titles, dates, times, locations, and descriptions, then add your events to the calendar of your choice.
Is it fast for big lists (10+ events)?
Bulk calendar creation is where Agenda Hero shines✨. You can batch create and bulk add calendar events in seconds, instead of hours, giving you more time for what matters.
What about privacy?
Agenda Hero takes data privacy seriously. We do not sell any data, and you are always in control of what is sent to your calendar.
